SD351 My Baby's Got Good Timing

This 1984 tune from the late Dan Seals peaked at #2 and was the second single from his album, San Antonio. It’s got a catchy lyrical hook, and callers will find it very easy to sing. As usual, Shakedown flat-out nailed the original song, and stunning background vocals by Mike Haworth really set this song apart. There’s a key change at the closer, and all but the band’s rhythm section backs out for the first 32 beats giving the caller a great opportunity to sing along with Mike’s backups. Recorded at the Bedroom Studios in Menifee, California, the MIDI arrangement and keyboards are the work of Pat Carnathan. Jim MacDonald’s guitar and engineering make this a showpiece tune.
